Join us for the first MSGL lifelong learning event of its kind: a Buenos Aires-themed networking event and engaging panel discussion with three successful MSGL alumni sharing their stories of life post-graduation.

Led by Dr. Jaime Alonso Gomez, this is sure to be a very practical and thorough discussion with plenty of take-aways no matter where you are in your career.

Our theme for the evening will be "Argentina Dreaming," with plenty of Malbec and appetizers. If you had the privilege of visiting Buenos Aires with our study abroad program, consider this a great way to reunite with your fellow travelers. If you weren’t able to make one of those trips, this evening will be a great taste of what you missed.

Or as Dr. Gomez has been known to say, “we’ll enjoy a glass of wine while we discuss the meaning of life!”

This event is open to MSGL alums, current students and prospective students and their spouses/significant others. Attire is business casual. Please RSVP here and contact us at msgl@sandiego.edu with questions or updates. MSGL program information can be found at http://www.sandiego.edu/msgl.
